SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on calculating the fugacity of a substance using given parameters such as temperature, pressure, compressibility, vapor pressure, molar volume, and isothermal compressibility. The user, Shanx, seeks guidance on the approach to take, specifically mentioning the importance of determining reduced temperature and pressure to assess density. The recommendation includes using charts for high-density substances and applying virial equations for low-density substances as initial steps in the calculation process.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of fugacity and its significance in thermodynamics
  • Knowledge of reduced temperature and pressure concepts
  • Familiarity with compressibility factors and their calculations
  • Experience with virial equations and their application in gas calculations
NEXT STEPS
  • Study the calculation of fugacity coefficients in thermodynamic systems
  • Learn about reduced properties and their role in phase behavior analysis
  • Explore the application of virial equations for real gas behavior
  • Research the use of compressibility charts for various substances
USEFUL FOR

Chemical engineers, thermodynamic researchers, and students studying phase equilibria and gas behavior in thermodynamics.

Hi everybody, :smile:
i have to calculate fugacicty of a certain subtance.

i am given temerature and pressure of a that substance and its compressiblity for the vapor phase.

i am also given its vapor pressure at the same temp., its molar volume, and its isothermal compressibilty at the same temp and i am told it is independent of pressure.

can anyone tell me how to approach this problem.

regards,
shanx
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
first find the reduced temp and press that will tell you whether its high density or low density if its high your charts if its low use the virial equations at least start there if you still don't know just ask and i can work it out for you.
